A Journey to Uncertainty

It was during the second part of the semester, I was emotionally unstable but the weather seemed to contradict my infirmness. The sun was beautifully shedding its light to the world with no hesitation. The bell rang when the clock stroke at 8:30 in the morning. My classmates and I slowly moved ourselves toward the empty room thinking of another surprising lecture that might be given by our teacher. 

As I sat in the chair where I always prefer to locate myself into which was two rows of chair from our teacher, an activity was directly given to us. We were told to get a one-fourth size yellow paper and so I grabbed my bag to check if I have abled to brought any. Surprisingly, I did get to bring a whole of one or two yellow papers. I then divided one of the whole yellow papers into two and then doing the same procedure to the other half of the divided paper. As I was doing so, a soft, small, and whispering-like voice addressed me from the back of my chair asking for a single piece of the papers that I now possessed. My head rotated to the right direction as if I was recalling what the person said to me. Without minding who the person was I instantly picked a single piece of the papers that I have and gave it to my classmate. 

Half of the class time was already spent and so our teacher posted two controversial topics on both sides of the board. They were written on two simple white bond papers with the use of a blue marking pen thus making the words appear very decipherable. The topics were very emotionally inclined and were definitely cliches that I somehow felt uninterested of the upcoming activity. Our teacher let us chose to which side do we mostly prefer and mentioning that we should give a stand to our decision. The class was then divided into two both parties having their intelligent reasons to the decisions they have done. The light debate between the two parties was going smoothly when all of a sudden an opposing classmate of mine to that of my chosen side of the debate expressed his opinion sternly in a matter that did not appeal to my understanding of the situation. After being in a state of boredom towards the debate that was going on, having heard my classmates opinion made me come to my senses that I was in a debate and I was fighting for something which was my belief. Right away, I debunked my classmate's opinion but he did not hinder to fight back. I got annoyed of my classmates perception of things that I again spoke for myself. The debate was then stopped by the equalization of thoughts of our teacher and her personal opinion of the matter at hand. 

A long rang of the bell was produced as the day approached at four in the afternoon. "At last", I said to myself. It was my last period in class for the day and I'm now free to do anything. I was with my guitar and a friend of mine. We decided to go to the same place where we relax ourselves for awhile after the stressful day. We were laughing and chitchatting just about anything that came into our consciousness for it was our way of totally seizing the day- it was our ordinary daily routine. My frantically discussed joke towards my friend got halted suddenly by a humorous idea that popped into my mind as I saw a presence that came in the very same location where we were. About three feet away from the chairs where me and my friend were sitting on I can vividly observe that presence that captured my attention. It was in front of us and it left us with nothing but to talk about it. I wanted the conversation to be new and interesting and so without hesitation I sarcastically said "Hey friend, look at that person in front of us. Do you recognize him? Well, he is my new crush!" then I laughed. An exchange of laughter also came from my friend. She got shocked with the seemingly confessed fresh and burning information that I gave her. I was expecting that reaction from her. Abruptly, she uttered words that I have not expected to occur in that conversation. With a joyous look, she told me "Oh really? He was also the one I was telling you about. I have a crush on him too!" That didn't crushed me a bit for I was only fooling around during those times just to erase certain issues that were embedded in the minds of my friends and of others. I wanted to break free from that agonizing issue that kept me locked in its dominion for quite some time.
